She should read the book "Too bad to stay, too good to leave."

Massively useful in this kind of situations. When you're totally confused about your relationship, this book brings lots of clarity on whether you have a serious problem or not, and what the serious problem is.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('uNkNowN ElEmEnt', 'I') know someone who is having marital problems. Her hubby says he needs time away from her because he resents her. See, he dumped her for a few weeks before they got back together and got married. in that time she slept with a guy she had been involved with before.



She was so broke up about being dumped she decided to go screw an old flame within a matter of a few weeks?

She is no innocent party in this thing. She should have told him in the beginning "yes I will marry you, oh and by the way last week a slept with Ted". Covering that up is a huge betrayal of trust.

This guy may very well be a jerk but she should not have lied.
They were doomed before they even began.

And his solution of going out and partying until 3:00 AM is just another word for divorce.


They are no longer spending time together as a couple so now is the time to either get busy being married again or get busy getting divorced.

Dr. Laura is an idiot with mysogenistic Xtian tendencies.


I have no idea what Xtian means, but I like her. At least she has convitions and is willing to stand by them, unlike most women now days, Plus, I have gotten more from her in the last year listening to the radio than I did in all of my life from my parents. Before I listened to her, I just wanted to f**k, but now, I honestly don't care if I live the rest of my life in solitude. Love, companionship, trust, and children are all a scam. There is nothing in it for me, therefore why should I risk flirting with any of it? I would rather be financially well-off than "be a better person". Fuck that.

If it costs me money out of my wallet, it's not worth it. I would sooner die with nobody renembering me. Shacking up isn't worth the disrepsect that comes with it, and marrage isn't worth the time it takes to maintain. Children simply aren't worth the cost requred to sustain their lives. I would sooner die, and not even be renembered that I have lived.

I agree with your eventual comclusion even if I got there a different way. I personally don't like Dr. Laura, when she started out in Vancouver Canada, she had a much more down to earth basis.

Her total Christian faith-based program now is not to my taste and I won't go into why ass I don't think trashing what others might hold dear is necessary.

My friend has elected to continue in the relationship letting him have his way. In fact, when she told him she had a work- Christmas party on the 20th he felt fine about taking the day off but decided to go to one of his friends office parties instead. You get what you ask for.

I haven't said anything cause its her life to live and who am I to pass judgements on her decisions, but were it my relationship... I'd let him go his own way (while in the relationship) and I'd go mine. which I suspect is the reason some relationships grow distant, and grow apart. but that is what he has chosen.
